Magic Tricks

I'm a huge fan of Matt Mello and I think that this is a great idea. It's a sure fire way to convince someone that you are holding more money in your hands than you really are, similar to the Derren Brown stunt where he buys things with slips of paper.

I was a little confused with the presentation and in my experience with this type of magic you need to make things extra clear. The participant put some money in their pocket at the beginning and I'm really confused as to why. Is it part of the suggestion? Is it supposed to be some sort of a transposition? He's not clear on this and I'm not sure why you would do this. Because he's not clear the end of the trick just kinda fizzles out which is unfortunate.

This can be easily remedied with a more clear presentation.

If this lack of focus hurt your ability to perform the trick I'd give it a lower rating, but in this case you can still do the trick and you'll have a miracle on your hands if you do.
